We used GWT-Ext and tossed it in favor of Ext-GWT (often referred to
as GXT).

I've said this before in this forum so I'll just be brief here as you
can search the forum for more details.

- It's been said MANY times so you know it's true:  It wouldn't be
accurate to say the documentation is poor.  It'd be more accurate to
say that the documentation is NON-EXISTENT and this is a SERIOUS
SERIOUS issue you must consider before choosing it.   You are,
apparently, expected to learn the library by reverse-engineering the
examples.   This means your project will have a potentially steep ramp-
up time.

- It's easy to find bugs in Ext-GWT because it's basically been a one-
man project for most of its life. However...

- Reported bugs tend to get fixed VERY quickly and if you are
licensed, you can pick up the fix from the SVN as soon as they are
fixed.

- Ext-GWT has what I consider to be a rather nice MVC architecture
built into it.   It really goes well beyond, say, Swing's MVC because
it not only de-couples Ms, Vcs and Cs, but decouples data-models, data
"loaders", etc.   The MVC architecture has some problems with its
generic implementation, but it's pretty good overall.

- We think the components look nice, but then... we pretty much have
customized everything.   Our app is highly stylized.
